Grey


Lüscher colour test: Grey, the colour of detachment, non-involvement, and of standing outside and above, of transcending everyday life and the concerns of humanity. A detached observer, the colour of philosophers, priests, magicians. Grey is the colour of Hermes, the “god of Magic.”

W.B. Yeats: “Whatever the great poets had affirmed in their finest moments was the nearest we could come to an authoritative religion.”

Lee arrived at two-thirty this afternoon. We’ve played chess a lot of the time; he’s beat me every game save one.

I am terrible.
